How does sex abuse in childhood affect the relationship in her marriage Treat her husband And when she becomes a mother?

Answer:

  • Child sexual abuse is extremely traumatic. Because the child is not aware of the ramifications of what sex is about they only know they don't like it, but, because the predator is an adult they feel they have no control so their little minds go into another world to cope with the unpleasantness of the act. If the child does not tell anyone or if they do and nothing is done about it as far as psychological therapy then that child grows into an adult and in many cases the adult may not have been aware they were sexually abused until one of their five senses (sight, smell, audio, taste and touch) give them a reminder of what has happened to them perhaps years before. If the woman does not receive counseling for this trauma in her life then she will have problems with relationships with the opposite sex in her adult life. Women of child sexual abuse can go three ways: A) They can be promiscuous in nature and sleep with many different men with no regard for their feelings. B) Become needy from the opposite sex, but have the feeling of not having those needs fulfilled. In other words just like as a child, trying to fill the needs of their partner instead of thinking of themselves. C) Become frigid or try to dodge any sexual contact with their partner. With proper counseling women suffering from child abuse can lead a fulfilling life and have a good relationship with the right partner. 'In each adult individual there is a small child within.'
